The list is "xtp-relay@pei.com". It was always very quiet, with
occasional bursts of life before & after XTP TAB/RA meetings. But
as you note, the proper way to ask to be added is to send mail to
"xtp-request@pei.com".

Yeah, that message was *old* (2.5 yr). ;-}  I no longer even work on that
project...

+---------------

If you include your surface-mailing address in mail to "xtp-request@pei.com",
they'll send you a copy of the XTP 3.6 spec, or you can anonymous FTP it from
"sgi.sgi.com:~ftp/xtp/xtp3.6.ps.Z" (about 400 KB).

+---------------

Alf has been one of the more enthusiastic participants at the XTP TAB/RA
meetings, and his group at U. Virginia has done their own implementation,
so his book should be interesting to anyone interested in XTP.
